Pichani ni Vodacom Miss Tanzania 2011, Salha Israel,akipunga mkono wa kwaheri kwa baadhi ya ndugu,jamaa,marafiki na watanzania waliojitokeza kumuaga katika uwanja wa ndege wa kimataifa wa Julius Kambarage Nyerere(JNIA) jijini Dar-es-salaam hapo jana.

Salha ameondoka kwenda kushiriki katika mashindano ya dunia (Miss World) yatakayofanyikia jijini London nchini Uingereza mwezi ujao tarehe 6 Novemba katika ukumbi wa Earls Court Two ambapo mshindi wa Miss World 2010,Mmarekani Alexandria Mills atakabidhi taji lake kwa mshindi mpya.

Swali kubwa ambalo najiuliza na ningependa nawe msomaji ujiulize ni kwamba je,mwaka huu Tanzania ina matumaini ya kufanya vizuri zaidi kuliko miaka ya nyuma?Tumefanya maandalizi ya kutosha ili kwenda kushindana na sio kushiriki katika mashindano haya?Na endapo tutaishia kuwa wasindikizaji,mwakani tujiandae namna gani?Tuwapate vipi wanaokwenda kutuwakilisha?

Bila shaka majibu ya baadhi ya maswali hayo magumu yapo mikononi mwa Kamati ya Miss Tanzania.Kwetu sisi hapa BC,tunamtakia Salha kila la kheri.

Hatimaye zoezi lililochukua miezi kadhaa la kumtafuta mrembo mpya wa Tanzania kwa mwaka huu wa 2011(Miss Tanzania 2011),lilifikia kilele chake jana usiku katika ukumbi wa Mlimani City jijini Dar-es-salaam na mwanadada Salha Israel kuibuka mshindi na hivyo kuvikwa rasmi taji la Miss Tanzania 2011 kutoka kwa Genevive Emmanuel Mpangala(Miss Tanzania 2010) aliyekuwa akilishikilia taji hilo mpaka hapo jana.

Katika kilele cha shindano hilo lililodhaminiwa kwa kiasi kikubwa na kampuni ya Vodacom na kupambwa na burudani ya mziki kutoka kwa wasanii mbalimbali wanaotamba Afrika Mashariki na Kati kama vile Diamond,Bob Junior,Kidumu na wengineo,mshindi wa pili alikuwa Tracy Sospeter na mshindi wa tatu akawa Alexia William.

Tunampongeza Salha kwa taji jipya.Lakini pongezi hizo ni vyema zikaenda na maswali magumu.Je,Salha anatoa matumaini kwa Tanzania kufanya Vizuri katika steji ya dunia(Miss World)?Je,Tanzania itaishia kuwa wasindikizaji tu katika fainali za dunia zinazotarajiwa kufanyika tarehe 6 November huko jijini London nchini Uingereza?Kuna lolote jipya ambalo Kamati Ya Miss Tanzania imejifunza kutokana na “uzoefu” wa miaka ya nyuma?

Upo ushauri ambao uliwahi kutolewa kwa kamati ya Miss Tanzania kupitia hapa BC.Je,umezingatiwa?Ni suala la kusubiri na kuona.

The name Belina Mgeni is not uncommon among fashion and modeling enthusiasts in Tanzania and across Africa. She is one of the gorgeous models to come from the land of Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar. Belina, who is called “Tyra Banks” by her friends and fans,is highly expected to follow the suit of other Tanzanians models such as Flaviana Matata,Millen Magese and Tausi Likokola etc who have made it “international”.

I recently had an opportunity to interview her on a couple of things including her modeling career, a bit about her personal life and more. Here is how it all went down in the 10 Questions for Belina Mgeni;

BC: Can you tell me a bit about your background. When and where were you born? Did you grow up there or you moved to somewhere else?

BELINA: I was born in Biharamulo-Kagera Region almost three decades ago. I then moved to several other regions before settling in Shinyanga and later on moved to Dar-es-salaam.

BC: What attracted you to the world of fashion and modeling and how did you start? Were you discovered by someone?

BELINA: I loved fashion since when I was kid. But the person who can take credit of discovering me was a Tanzanian modeling agency which was under Irene Kiwia. I was taking my picture at the studio when somebody named Abdalah called Irene and told her that there was a girl who can be perfect for her modelling staff. Irene came and met me there and that was the beginning of my modeling career.

BC: So far, how many shows have you participated into and what can you say was/is the highlight of your career so far?

BELINA: So far I have done quite many shows/catwalks. It’s hard to remember specific figure. However, currently I am doing more advertisements than catwalks.

BC: You are one of the most beautiful Tanzanian models. How do you maintain that beauty? Any special formula/secret?

BELINA: ahhahahah not sure about that one, but I don’t have any formula or secret to be honest. I eat a lot and I don’t even go to the Gym. I guess I am just lucky..lol

BC: What is one big misconception people have about you?

BELINA: Some people think am too proud and all over myself. That is not true and to the opposite; I am just a simple and easy going person.

BC: What is your definition of beauty?

BELINA: My definition of beauty is good character and good looking (good looks)

BC: If I was to ask your friends about you, how do you think they will describe you?

BELINA: They would tell you that I am a very straight forward person and very unselfish to my friends.

BC: You recently got engaged, any plans for marriage?

BELINA: hahahahahah…No I am not engaged but I do have a boyfriend.

BC: Who is your role model as far as modeling is concerned?

BELINA: Tyra Banks

BC: Any words of advice for a young lady who aspires to be a model?

BELINA: Don’t give up on what you like. Work hard until you achieve it.
